IPv6 is enabled by default. Stateless address autoconfiguration is used to
|
|
|
|
automatically assign IPv6 addresses to all interfaces. You can disable IPv6
|
|
|
|
support globally by setting:

You can disable IPv6 on a single interface using a normal sysctl (in this

|
|
|
example, we use interface <varname>eth0</varname>):

As with IPv4 networking interfaces are automatically configured via DHCPv6.

You can configure an interface manually:
